Designers Guild Chinoiserie

This wonderful wallpaper is Rheinsberg from Designers Guild's Nabucco Collection. They describe it as a sophisticated Chinoiserie inspired geometric pattern for a graphic look. It's a lovely alternative to a paper like Imperial Trellis if you'd like a graphic Chinoiserie design that is not being overused. It also comes in some great colorways.

Fabulous Chinoiserie Etsy Find or DIY

I found these amazing Chinoiserie placemats through the wonderful blog Holding Court. These handmade placemats from the Etsy shop Holly Stuart Designs are cut from hardwood, backed in black, trimmed in gold, and protected with a clear finish. The papers are from high end design houses with sought after choices like Kelly Wearstler Imperial Trellis. She will also do custom work using your wallpaper. Any of these would make for a gorgeous table. This would also be a great DIY project-there are many articles online about making placemats out of wallpaper. Now if I could only get my hands on some leftover Gracie, de Gournay, or Fromental.

The Chinoiserie Love Letter

Email is wonderful for many things, but not for that perfect love letter to be tucked away and cherished for a lifetime. For that, choose gorgeous Dempsey & Carroll Chinoiserie themed stationery worthy of your words. Three of these limited edition sets are part of a collaboration with Schumacher. Choose from Chiang Mai Dragon in the aquamarine colorway, Chenonceau in a mixed boxed set of five different colorways, or Imperial Trellis in a mixed boxed set of five colorways. I also love the limited edition Bamboo Border by Celerie Kemble.

A Chiang Mai Dragon Christmas

Who wouldn't love a Christmas stocking made from Schumacher Chiang Mai Dragon and Kelly Wearstler Imperial Trellis? I first saw these designer stockings on the wonderful new blog Aesthetic Oiseau who also created my gorgeous new blog design. The Etsy shop Plum Cushion makes them and the price is great! I purchased the first two pictured and already received them and they are perfect. Have you ever seen Christmas stockings as chic as these? So simple and elegant, using the best and hottest fabrics, and letting the great fabric designs speak for themselves. Don't think stockings can only be used on fireplace mantles. I love them anywhere in the house at Christmas-on a chair, on a table, hung from a doorknob or kitchen cabinet-use your imagination!
